Radiohead headline Rock Werchter, and the crowd finishes “Karma Police”

written up for the archive

Radiohead closed the second day of Rock Werchter in Belgium on Friday night. It was their fifth Rock Werchter and their first since 2008.

According to Dork's Jessica Goodman, Thom Yorke greeted the crowd with a shouted wazzuuup1 and admitted he regretted how much he had drunk at Glastonbury the week before.

Seven songs came from OK Computer, more than from any other album: “Lucky”, “Airbag”, “Let Down”, “No Surprises”, “Climbing Up the Walls”, “Paranoid Android” and “Karma Police”. Goodman wrote that the band had never sounded this good, and picked out “Identikit” and “Weird Fishes/Arpeggi” for setting the crowd dancing.

“My Iron Lung” opened the second encore and “Karma Police” closed it. Late in the song the sound cut out, and the field sang the refrain on its own.
